This study presents a sharp-interface algebraic volume-of-fluid (SA-VOF) approach towards direct numerical simulation of evaporating droplets in a finite-volume framework. An interface identification scheme is introduced to determine a sharp layer of interface cells where liquid-vapor phase change o...
